Hello, > Hi. I've just realized that my laptop has the same chip. Do you have any > updates? Maybe I can help somehow? Thanks
I've spended a lot of time but some day a gave up. Now I have a Dell E6540 where really everything works (sincere thanx to all developers!), so I think I leave the other laptop unused (it has another problem--with the current gfx driver the C70 GPU gets near to 100 degree celsius). There is a working driver for FreeBSD. Initially I thought I could port it, but it is very FreeBSD dependent. Then I tried to extend the athn by looking at the FreeBSD code. Maybe the better way--since if you want to distribute it it has to have OpenBSD quality anyway. But if you look at the amount of code of this driver you see that it's a lot of work to do. There is also a driver for Linux, but one could assume that there would be more work to do than using the FreeBSD code. With my current time budget I can do testing and small code changes but real development I can't do in the near future, unfortunately. Regards, Carsten
